Crown2018 Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 BISD Marching Fest 2018 Does anyone know who’s going? Quote
Bandwoww Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Flowermound and Marcus have a history of attending this competition but Marcus will be at Waco that day so maybe Flowermound will attend like they did last state year? Also, I hope to see Waxahachie here and I hope they continue to grow. Quote
Bandwoww Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Keller has been a consistent attendee for a while now. This competition almost fell of the map when only 9 bands attended in 2016. Luckily 2017 had a bigger turn out. I would hope to see more competition at the top but this is always a good competition nonetheless...if it doesn’t get rained out Quote

abtwitch Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 My list based off of me stalking a ton of band calendars: Abilene Aledo Cleburne Abilene Cooper Coppell Duncanville Grapevine Highland Park John Horn Keller Lamar Mansfield Legacy Mansfield Looking pretty stacked, I'd say don't count Abilene out quite yet.

One more Mansfield in there, Mansfield Summit will be there. Apparently a lot of bands are checking this stadium out with this contest in prep for 6A Area B Area, as it will be here too. Quote

Luckily 2017 had a bigger turn out. I would hope to see more competition at the top but this is always a good competition nonetheless...if it doesn’t get rained out I believe Keller has attened this competition every year it has been held. In the early years Dan Potter (of BOA fame and glory) was the announcer. Fun times with various "dancing baby" versions and Godzilla clapping on the end zone video screen. And historically, Finals have been rained out half the time. Bandwoww 1 Quote

theotterarjun Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 Euless Trinity is attending. Per the link on the BISD site, they are performing right after FloMo at 1:30 PM. Quote
PiVertex Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 FloMo, Keller, Coppell, Keller Central, Duncanville, Mansfield, Aledo, Boswell, Summit, and Horn are all good contenders Quote
LostChoirGuy Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 I love this lineup! This is taking place at the same stadium as Area B, and as a non-BOA competition may give some great insight for what will happen when considered together with results from this weekend. 5 6A Area B schools made DFW finals: Keller, LD Bell, Timber Creek, Waxahachie, and Prosper. I am not suggesting that these 5 are all certainly going to make state, but all are in a good position. This competition will give us a great look at the other bands that are fighting for a spot. Coppell, Keller Central, and Duncanville are all competing and Richland and Haltom are giving exhibition performances. These 5 bands all stand a great chance at nabbing a state bid. Plus there is Flower Mound and Keller, which should both have great performances coming off of Gold and Bronze medals at DFW. I hope we get to make predictions for this contest! Quote
josephbandfan Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Has anyone submitted this contest for the predictions site yet? Quote
Jelonfish Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Has anyone submitted this contest for the predictions site yet?Don’t think so Quote
Anthony V Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 My pre-contest list of likely finalists, sort of in order: Locks (1-5): Keller Flower Mound Duncanville Coppell Keller Central Probably Locks (6-7): Aledo Mansfield Not locks but fairly safe bets (8-9): Summit Trinity The "Wouldn't surprise me" list (10-13): Byron Nelson Grapevine Legacy Lewisville Quote
